Here I go . . .

March 1, 2006

I am here. I’ve been wanting to create a blog for months. I’ve been reading many blogs and feeling very inspired. I love to hear what other people are doing and thinking and feeling. I have so much on my mind right now that I thought this would help me sort things out. I also need to feel like I matter and what I say is important too. So I’m usually not one to jump on a bandwagon or to do what is trendy (why I’ve resisted the blog for so long). I hate doing things just because everyone else is doing them. Yuck!


This is huge for me to put my thoughts on paper. I would sporadically write in a journal but I wasn’t very good at keeping it up and I have a hard time putting my thoughts out there.

So for me this is HUGE.

I also started a photo journal today and will be taking one photo a day - just for me. I want to capture more of the everyday stuff. I think I will concentrate on me this month. What I see and what means something to me. This will be a good exercise for me to actually slow down and think about what is around me every day. What is important to me and to actually stop and look at these important things and notice them - really notice them. Too often my life is a blur . My days are the same or at least I feel that way. I took a photo of my computer in my office and my favorite breakfast - a cup of coffee and a scone. My morning ritual.

So much to say, but this is a start.

I am proud of me for starting this blog.
